Care and cleaning of the oven

WARNING

• Be sure all controls are OFF and all surfaces are COOL before cleaning any part

of the range.

• If your range is moved for cleaning, servicing, or any

reason, be sure the Anti-Tip device is re-engaged

properly when the range is replaced. If you fail to re-

engage the Anti-Tip device, the range could tip and cause

serous injury.

Vent

• The vents are located at the back of the

oven range.

• This area could become hot during oven

use.

• It is normal for steam to come out of

the vent.

• The vent is important for proper air

circulation. Never block this vent.

After a steam-cleaning cycle

• Take care when opening the door before a steam-cleaning procedure has

ended. The water on the bottom is hot.

• Open the oven door and remove the remaining water with a sponge. Do not

leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time. Wipe the oven

clean and dry with a soft cloth. Do not forget to wipe under the oven door

seal.

• Use a detergent-soaked sponge, a soft brush, or a nylon scrubber to wipe the

oven interior. Remove stubborn residue with a nylon scourer. You can remove

lime deposits with a cloth soaked in vinegar.

• If the oven remains dirty, you can repeat the procedure once the oven has

cooled.

• For heavy residue, such as grease left over from roasting, we recommend

that you rub detergent into the residue before activating the steam-cleaning

function.

• After cleaning, leave the oven door ajar at a 15° angle to allow the interior

enamel surface to dry thoroughly.
